The guidebook says you go up the 5.7 bombay chimney at the back of the alcove then up a 5.6 crack to easier ground. Can't vouch for this since I haven't done it though. It appeared that the majority of climbers on the route bailed after P3.

From the top of the 4th class after the third pitch, I climbed underneath the overhanging chimney. Started on the left side of the face, clipped a fix pin, and traversed right on good but sketchy holds, with a nasty fall potention (R?). Then up into the chimney which wasn't as hard as it looked.

From the top of the chimney you can go right up a short 3"-4" crack and you will shortly be at a bolted rap station. Or...you can do what we did and find a way more or less straight up, pulling 5.8 handcracks and get to another ledge with a bail anchor and rap from there. I may have been off route here...Meh.

The fourth pitch is 5.9 (5.7R) according to the guidebook; it seemed the crux pitch to me. I climbed past the fixed pin, backed it up, then straight up (delicate and a bit scary; a marginal 00 Metolius might have held?) before traversing right. Goodhue's lower traverse might be better, but sets up a hard swing.... And then a cool move to get into the bombay chimney. P5 has a nice layback ~5.7, and then we rapped.

Double 60s gets you to the ground from the top of P3 if you angle a bit south.

A good route, well worth doing. Pitch 4 was wet when I got to it so I opted for the lower traverse as well. It went without too much trouble but I wouldn't have wanted to fall. It should be noted that after traversing one has to climb up through a series of loose blocks. I protected beneath a large flake that seemed solid only to have the whole thing shift when I later pulled on the top of it.
